The H-Ala-Arg-(Ala)6-Lys-OH sequence is a biologically interesting 'difficult sequence' presenting N alpha-Fmoc deprotection and coupling problems. Different chemical conditions and synthetic strategies have been tested in order to overcome the problems due to sequence-dependent interactions. In particular, it was confirmed that different solvents in the deprotection step did not provide any significant improvement, but the use of a more efficient base in the deprotection mixture avoided insufficient unblocking of N alpha-protecting group; problems due to partial coupling in the last steps of the synthesis were solved by double coupling techniques. Moreover, the synthesis of the model peptide was carried out using both "continuous flow' and "batch' techniques. The present results demonstrate that on-line monitoring of the deprotection step by absorbance measurements represents a very effective tool to detect the onset of internal aggregations during the synthesis.
